When it didn't work for you, were you connected to your network by Ethernet? If so, then I don't know why it didn't work for you. Just gave it another try with a fresh card written with Raspberry Pi Imager Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Raspberry Pi 3/4) 64-bit server OS for arm64 architectures). Didn't do anyth...

As I now need an SD card in the RPi I have put in a "standard" SD card and edited /boot/cmdline.txt to point at /dev/sda2 and modified the /etc/fstab file on the hard disk to point at /dev/mmcblk0p1 and /dev/sda2 Works nicely and reboots nicely Why? Didn't the bootcode.bin only SD card work? Are yo...

HawaiianPi

You didn't remove the sudo directory, you broke the command. The /usr/bin directory contains commands, scripts and shared libraries for many important system functions (along with configuration files and links to others). So yea, you messed up.

Probably simpler to start over with a fresh install.

some software upgrades have been done since the release of the RPI4, and behaviour might have been updated since. I have seen references to fixes, and posts suggesting that either port can be used now, but more often than not, when someone is having trouble, using HDMI-0 solves their problem. I hav...

I'll also suggest that with a fan you will not need heatsinks. My 4B2 is in a 2-layer, open-sided case with a Noctua 40x10mm fan that is almost silent, and my temps never approach throttling. I would not use the cheap heatsinks included with cases (for reasons already explained by bjtheone above). ...

RPi1B+ is the board the OP wants....

The A+ would be closer to the Pi0 in both price and features (but with the analog AV port).

Reboots then fall through to booting an SD Card left in the socket ... SD card booting has priority, so if there is a boot SD card in the system, that's what boots (not the USB drive). An update/full-upgrade while attempting to fix things then wiped out my 5.4 kernel and downgraded to 4.19, and now...

Did your ssh file have an extension? Windows hides common extensions (like .txt) by default, and Raspbian will accept either ssh or ssh.txt, but I'm not sure if Ubuntu will work with ssh.txt. (anyone know for sure)?

Do I have to use a monitor and network cable for the first time with Ubuntu Server 20.04? I setup my 4B4 with Ubuntu server 20.04 headless, but I don't recall if I had to do anything special. I do recall that configuring WiFi on Ubuntu is seriously messed up (the configuration file formatting is su...

But there was always some program running, preventing me to do this, And I tried to kill the tasks manually but it was keep on reopening the programs again and again. What running programs are associated with the pi user? What version of Raspbian? Is auto-login still enabled? Removing the pi user s...

-- Toggle USB root hub port power for 200ms on the first USB MSD boot attempt My 4B2 system still cold boots and reboots fine, but I'm also running the beta VL805 138a1 firmware (if that matters). Since this seems to be problematic for others, I wonder if it could be made a bootconfig.txt option? -...

I installed NOOBS other software with it. It took hours to install. Shouldn't take that long. Something is wrong here. After the installation, it asked about doing updates. I said, "yes". I let it go overnight. This morning, there was an error message that there was not enough space for the updates...

- Copied *.dat and *.elf date 2020-05-27 to the SD card. That step is not needed. The required *.elf &*.dat files are now available from apt, so a normal sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade -y will install them (which also means future updates won't break your system). Just boot from the SD ca...

Do you need a GUI (desktop environment)? A serial console cable or USB-TTL adapter will work for logging into the shell (command line). That would connect between the Chromebook's USB and the Pi's GPIO serial port. With serial console enabled in raspi-config you can login from a serial terminal on t...

Oh, is it? My mistake. Apologies. I thought it was amd64.

The userland is 32-bit, but I think it uses a 64-bit kernel on x86-64 systems (been awhile since I used it, so not 100% sure).

I didn't need to install anything to use my Bluetooth speakers. I just paired them and select what I want sound out of by right-clicking on the volume control icon on the panel. audioselect.jpg So when I want to switch from Analog or HDMI to my Bluetooth speakers, I just click on EDIFIER Exclaim Con...

HawaiianPi

Yes, so I am hoping they create a 64bit X86 version of the Raspberry PI Desktop OS, which I would guess would be based on Raspberry PI OS. An x86 version would just be Debian with the Raspberry Pi Desktop (not Raspberry Pi OS or Raspbian, which only runs on a Pi). Debian with the LXDE desktop would...

HawaiianPi

I'm sure you already know that upgrading between major release versions is not recommended or supported. It can be done, but even if you get it to boot, you may run into trouble later on. Starting over shouldn't be that hard, since you have a working setup as reference. However, if you insist on goi...

When you connect the SSD to the Pi directly it does not boot. I assume the SSD is recognized as the boot disk not the USB. A drive will only be "recognized as the boot disk" if it is actually a boot disk. A drive used for data only will not be recognized as a boot disk. If you have /boot/cmdline.tx...

HawaiianPi

It only happens on a Pi that has the beta software for USB MSD booting. This implies that there is at least a correlation, and thus, on topic... No, you are off-topic. This thread is specifically for bootloader bugs, not problems with the OS. Read the OP! Please try to keep the discussion relevant ...

I'll buy another USB3 to SATA and test your theory.

This should be the same one I am using (got mine from Amazon USA).

I want to know how I can determine after installing the 2020-02-13 image and updating that I am running the equivalent of starting over and installing the 2020-05-27 image. You can't tell in any simple way that I am aware of, and it's not always equivalent. New images sometimes contain replacement ...

It's strange because I only have the USB hub connected and on the hub a small Zwave USB key for home automation and a USB interface getting data from my alarm system. Seems like you have enough USB ports (assuming it's a Pi3B, you have 4 USB ports and only 3 USB devices). If you are at all curious ...

HawaiianPi

I guess the other USB devices on the USB hub even if they are not bootable devices are seen earlier after power up than my SSD preventing the boot process. Unlikely. Multiple USB devices should not affect booting, unless they themselves are bootable devices (in other words, you have more than one U...

HawaiianPi

It seems you can't reboot (you can shutdown -r now) and unplug/plug back in to get working if you're using two USB3 to SATA adapters. Sure you can, or at least, I can... Not sure what your problem is, but it is definitely possible. I know, I tried and failed. Your failure doesn't apply to everyone....
